Shaving a millionaire.
Let any mah become immensely wealthy
by bis own exertions, and straightway you
ehall hear numerous anecdotes illustrating
the means by which he attained his riches,
the effect they have upon him, his disposi
tion of them, or hia pyings, peculiarities
and eccentricities4 .*> 4>
Astor, Girard and ?lilly Gray have furn
ished illustrations for many a clever sketch
er. "We beard a few clever anecdotes the
oiuer aay 01 uiny uionons, a iNew Jersy
millionaire, one of which we will gife our
readet-s.
It seems that Billy, while in a country
village in which he oWned some property,
stepped into a barber's shop to get shaved;
Ibe Bhop was full of custcfn *rs, and the
old gentleman quietly waited for his turn.
A customer who was under the barber's
bands when the. old trtan came in, ashed
the 'knight of the raEor,' i<f an tinder tone,
if he knew who that was, and on receiving
a negativo reply, h$ informed him, in a
wniaper, it was' old Hilly Uibbous, tUe rich- j
est man in the State.'
Gad,'said the barber* 'I'll charge-/Ytm
for kit shave.'
Accordingly a'ter tie old man bad tbat
operation performed* was somewhat stir
prised, upon asking the price, lo be told?
seventy five cents)'
'Sejenly-five cents Tsaid he quietly,'lsn'r
that rather a high price?'
'It's nay price,' 6ai3 he of the lather
brash independently, 'and as this is the on
ly barber's shop in the plaee, them as comes
into it mnst pay what*I ask.'
To the old-mHn this was. evidently a
knockdown argnment, ^.for "he drew three
quarters of a dollar from his pocket, paid
them over to the barber, and left the shop.
A short time softer he waV ip close con
versation witlr the. landlord of a tavern

"'Pshaw!',6a.id ,'tHe old man, 'that won't

placing two ten dollar notes on the table
before astonished barber?who it is almost,
unnecessary to state, accepted tbe propo
sition, and who was still more surprised to
learn that it was Bill}' Gibbons himself who
had hired him.
Ill rt ftiW Hav- thn itihnhifnnf* nf (lint vill.
age were astonished by the appearance of a
splenid new barber's shop, far surpassing
the other in elegance of appointments, and
in which, with new mugs, soaps, razors
and perfumes, stood a barber-and assistant
ffeady to do duty on the heads of the peo
ple Over tho door was inscribed, Win
llarrington, Shuviug and Hair Dressing
Saloon.
The people, were not long in ascertaining,
or slow in availing themselves of the privl
leges of this establishment, and it is not to
bo Pondered thai it was crowded and the
other deserted. The other held out some
weeks, suspecting this frefc . Sharing?fof

The<New York Jofurnal of Commerce
in reply'to a cbrrespondegt wbd i# anxious
for poacb ort' honourable ternli, mnlcesr,
among others, the following suggestions :
Let an armistice bo agreed on between
the two belligerents for three months.
Let tbe Executive of the ttfo'powers, by
means of envoysj arrange for a convention
of delegates from e?ch of tbe thirty-four
States now or lately composing tbe Ameri
can Onion'said convention to be held at
Louisville* Ky., at s uch date as may be
agreed on, it boing. understood that the
election and sending of such delegates shitll''
in no way prejudice the cluims of either of
the belligerents, in' case tfic convention
should fail to como to any peaceful arrange
ment.
'JFhe business of the convention should be
to devise, if practicable, some plan of reun
ion under a modified Constitution, such as
4 r
they may agree upon,, whereby all the thir
ly-four States can co-operate with each
other for the common defence against for
eign invaders; for mutual free-trade be?

If a reconstruction should be found im
possible, then arrange for a peaceful s
tion and a pro rata division of.the norr -
property, with reciprocal treaties of amity,

Whatever, plan, either of reconstruction
or separation, might ftfe adopted by the
convention, should onjy become binding
upon the States after being ratified by three
fourths of tbo eleven Confederate States,
and also by three-fourths of the twenty
three United States. ^Fhe suppression of

?" THE CATHOLICS AHD THE WAB.
The whole Catholic^ population of the
South arc with- us, heart and band, in tbk
war. The Charleston Catholic Mitcettany
exults over our victory at Manassas, and
adds.;
Providence has'twiee, within the last ten
days, blessed our arms "with victory in Vir
ginia. . The bntt.Io of the 18th was a'bfil
linat suce'ess, that of the 21st a most deci
ded victory. Tlio hirelings came On reioio*
ing, taking our speedily flight for granted.
They carao with sound1 of trumpet and joy
ful music ; .with extra festival dishes to ban
quet after their anticipated conquest; with
handcuffs for our vanquished prisoners, Or it ^
may l>o for our 'contraband articles of war'
(hat their philanthropy came to rescue from
1 Southern bondage into West India freedom.
But a just God lias confounded their coun
sels, and turned their glee-and rejoicing in
to dismay and defeat. .-8ucb a complete
rout waa never seen on Ibis continent since
.. uj bivin^au uiuauiiauia. oar
volunteers defeated their regulars, captured
vaunted batteries-at the point o-f the bayo
net, and slaughtered them -llkg'Bheepin
their cowardly flight. Atid they were two
to our one ! All! honotnr toour . Beaure
gardsj Johnstons and other brave leaders I
Ail sympathy and respect to the memory
of the Beas, Bartows, Johnsons, and others
of the fallen brave f Butj above all*, thanks
to Divine Mercy that guided thq counsels
and nerved the arms of our bravo
warriort!- Let our wicked foe trust in hta
hor&s and- chariots, in his strong weapon*
and great numbers ; but feeling that oar
cause is. righteous, let our trust be in the
same $jjpP
There is afiid to be even a very great
change in the Catholics of the North who
have enlisted. Manv of tbem denUrn tlmt
they were induced to enlist by-the reprea
eillation that their churches had been burn
ed, eown in the South, and that all the Sis
th'cr of Charity had been tornod'out of the
Convents, wfiich'had btfenxonvented
P ' *-r
barrafcks. They are amazed to flnd^ho
statement so utterly false, and to l^arn how
many of their countrymen are enlisted on
the side; ofrthe South. v
